The centre-led activities were mostly excellent: age-appropriate yet stretching and appropriately interactive. Stand outs: tour of telescopes, tower building, bridge building. (October 2024 - Secondary School)

A really hands on experiential day out. The staff are lovely and helpful. (February 2023 - Primary School)




The workshop wasn't as interactive as I thought it would be. There was lots to see -I wasn't sure where would be best palaces to go. There didn't seem to be a map outlining the different exhibits - which would have been useful. (July 2022 - Primary School)




Excellent interactive activities in a safe learning environment. (November 2021 - Primary School)




We were very impressed both with the coach company and with Herstmonceux. We had the place to ourselves and everyone was very welcoming and helpful. The workshops/shows that we used were informative, curriculum based and deepened the children's understandings. Having some of the staff explaining some of the fantastic hands-on resources and equipment there would have made it even better. (October 2021 - Primary School)
